Get Smart About Emotional Intelligence: Enhance Your Effectiveness

Emotional intelligence (EI) is being able to perceive, interpret, and respond to your emotions and those of others. It is crucial for working collaboratively and effectively and having difficult conversations.

People with more emotional intelligence tend to be more resilient, better decision makers, more effective leaders, better communicators, have more self-awareness and self-control, and more success in life overall. The good news is that EI can be learned and developed. Discover how to harness the power of emotions for more effective interactions!

As a result of this program attendees will:

• define emotional intelligence and describe its 4 domains
• explain the benefits of emotional intelligence in the workplace
• describe 4 ways you can improve your EI
